Like most people, I have never owned a hot tub before. Hot tubs are kind of like boats…..huge money pit (high maintenance costs, depreciating asset, etc) but super fun to use once in a while. That’s why I knew that I had to put one in at the vacation house. There's nothing better than relaxing in the hot tub after 36 holes of golf at Rope Rider and Prospector.
A few interesting stats about hot tubs…
- Approx 30% of the vacation homes available to rent at Suncadia have hot tubs (15 out of 48). One home even has two hot tubs!
- The name ‘Jacuzzi’ came from the Jacuzzi brothers who immigrated from Italy to the US and originally worked on machining pumps and propellers. In 1948, one of the brothers created a bathtub pump to help ease the pain of his son, who was suffering from rheumatoid arthritis.
- The ideal temperature for hot tubs is between 100-102 (for adults). The maximum temp is 104 (regulated by the National Spa and Pool Institute)
